What key lesson about Guruship and discipleship does Chapter 5 of the Sai Satcharitra teach?

Chapter 5 imparts a profound lesson on humility and the nature of the Guru-disciple relationship through Sai Baba's own conduct. After a Fakir, who was once defeated in a debate by Devidas, returns and bows to Sai, Baba continues to treat him with respect. The chapter explains Baba's perspective: "His Guruship to him, and my discipleship to me." This illustrates Sai's complete lack of ego and his embodiment of humility. The narrative suggests that to achieve spiritual progress, one must act without pride, either by becoming a devoted disciple or by accepting another as one's own. As Chapter 5 concludes, this ability to burn the pride of the body is what makes one's life meaningful.
